IOWA STATE RETURNS TO NATIONAL RANKINGS
September 9th, 2024 by Asa Lucas
AMES, Iowa – The Iowa State football team has returned to the national rankings after a resilient come-from-behind win against No. 21 Iowa on Saturday in Iowa City.
The Cyclones are ranked No. 21 in the Associated Press poll, released Sunday. It is ISU’s first time being ranked in the Top 25 since Oct. 25, 2021. The Cyclones are also No. 23 in the AFCA Coaches Poll.
The Cyclones are 2-0 heading into their bye week following the win against the Hawkeyes in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series showdown. Redshirt freshman Kyle Konrardy capped the comeback with a 54-yard field goal that ultimately gave the Cyclones a 20-19 victory, their second-straight on the road in the series.
Iowa State returns to action Sept. 21 when it hosts Arkansas State on Hall of Fame Weekend. ISU will induct six former star athletes into its Hall of Fame that weekend, including football letterwinner and Super Bowl champion Kelechi Osemele.
